Tesla began making cars again at its Fremont, California plant over the weekend despite an ongoing battle with local officials about whether it should remain closed during the pandemic, The Verge <\/em>has learned. The company called back some of its workers and has completed around 200 Model Y and Model 3 vehicles, according to two current employees who spoke to The Verge <\/em>on the condition of anonymity. This all happened as CEO Elon Musk threatened on Twitter to move Tesla’s operations out of state and sued Alameda County over its stay-home order.<\/p>\n

Tesla is also calling back workers that were placed on furlough last month, according to an email viewed by The Verge<\/em>. The company had previously only told certain workers to report back to the factory later this week, as was reported byBusiness Insider<\/em>. <\/em>After this article was published, Musk tweeted that Tesla is reopening in violation of Alameda County’s order and said he’ll work on the production line. “If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me,” he wrote.<\/p>\n
